CH 122

: Darius (2)

Siegfried and Han's eyes widened as the space suddenly changed.

The neat silvery iron floor, walls and ceiling shimmered like new, as if they were made of the same material. And how wide and high it was, it was a space that wouldn't be too much for tens of thousands of people to enter.

But the most surprising thing was the power flowing through space.

'The flow of mana is free.'

The sorcerer Siegfried admired the flow of mana flowing in a direction favorable to him, not being rich.

There are very few places in the world that are so rich in mana. At least there was no such place around the Kelton Mountains.

The limit was the same. As a warrior, he felt his body become lighter. With each breath, mana flows into the body, strengthening the aura.

full of energy. His condition has risen to a level that is difficult to compare with usual.

"Is this the work of Confucius?"

Han looked at Siegfried with a startled look at Siegfried's words.

"Isn't that what you made?"

"I didn't do it."

Yes. I did."

Jamie meekly admitted.

The two men's eyes widened. I hoped it was, but it was a face that I didn't know I could call myself the real person.

Jamie said.

"It's a shape-building artifact, Gremia."

"Gramia?"

"It's the piece that held the Thunder Dragon Sword Gram."

Ah!

Han exclaimed as if he knew.

He, too, was aware of Beiryl's mission a few months ago. The legendary sword that was said to have killed the dragon, now in the hands of Isis. He said he went to Apton to get it.

"I was lucky."

Everything was led by fate, but he had no intention of telling Han about it.

Armion, the former owner of Gremia, waited hundreds of years to entrust this to himself.

He kept it a secret even from Isis, the head of the Frontier.

Because of that, there was no reason to tell the Frontier members what Armion had kept secret.

"More than that ."

Jamie raised a small hand and pointed forward.

"I don't have time to chat."

Darius stood still, his face turned toward Jamie.

He widened the space so that Siegfried could not approach it, and kept it away, but Darius surpassed even that with only the power of his body.

It was indeed a monstrous physical ability.

'I'm holding back.'

You can make everything in Gramia according to your taste.

In the past, Theberon's sealing of Jamie's black mana was only part of it.

From the abundant mana and favorable flow of mana that Siegfried feels right now, to the phenomenon of making Han's body lighter and strengthening his aura. All of them were manipulated with Gremia.

And for Darius, he reduced the surrounding oxygen along with the heaviest possible body, and even disturbed the flow of mana.

If you have the same level of skill, you will be fighting with a huge penalty here.

'Too strong.'

The problem is that Darius is too strong.

Gramia was an all-rounder, but it had a major flaw.

The effect doesn't work well for beings stronger than the owner.

Siegfried and Han, allies, accepted it as it was a positive effect, but it did not work well for Darius.

With that level of skill, if you try to break the penalty by force, there is nothing you can't break.

"Interesting."

Darius smiled faintly at the change in his body.

He was going to knock down the enemies right away, regardless of whether the space changed or not.

However, his body suddenly became heavy, and his breathing became irregular.

It wasn't that annoying though. This level has no effect on movement.

'But they are different from me.'

Siegfried and Han.

The condition of the two masters has improved from before. His 'space perception' made him feel everything within the reach of his power.

From breathing to muscles, joints, body temperature, pulse, and even cell movements.

That's not all. changed space. Although he is blind, he cannot see, but the power of spatial awareness allowed him to see the invisible.

Although it was only a form, it was enough for Darius.

"It's a strange space. no frame Is it a structure that transforms freely?"

Jamie's eyes widened.

Just by recognizing it once, he understood the essence of Gremia. That was impossible even for Han and Siegfried. No, it will be the same if you bring another master.

child. I was surprised."

Darius pointed to Jamie.

Jamie flinched, and Darius laughed a little.

"Don't be surprised. It's just that kind of power."

Darius took off his sunglasses. And what appeared was not ordinary eyes with black pupils on the whites.

" I have no eyes."

Han muttered in a slightly embarrassed voice.

As he said, there were only whites in Darius' eyes. It was a terrifying sight.

But I couldn't help but feel the horror. Darius was blind, but he understood the essence of Gremia.

There was no need to think 'how?'.

Darius started talking.

"I had an accident when I was young. It was a sad accident. Because a boy who was only 16 became blind."

10 years of despair.

I didn't even have the courage to die, so I lived as if I was dead. Then one day, Giyeon came to Darius, who was 26 years old.

"You can do it even if you can't see it. I heard that."

It was an ordinary meeting.

He took pity on Darius and taught him a fist. It was like something out of a novel that a blind man could learn martial arts. It was practically impossible.

But the man was desperate to teach, and Darius was gifted.

But a blind man is only a blind man. You can't fight if you can't see. It is said that if you improve your skills, you can read the opponent's signs, but to Darius, it was just a nonsense.

The man did not give up. After forcing Darius to stand up, he continued to train.

"It's been a long time."

couldn't see ahead still can't see

However.

"In the end, I did it."

30 years.

Time to train your fists as a blind person.

Darius couldn't see, but he could see.

The blind man was no longer an ordinary blind man.

"He sees far more than he who has eyes."

spatial awareness.

A power acquired by the "Fist Master" who has trained his senses to the limit.

With that power, he conquered the dark arena where all kinds of illegal violence were rampant and reigned as the champion for over 10 years.

"You can feel this space without seeing who owns it."

power is connected.

Jamie swallowed dry saliva. There was someone with that kind of power in a previous life. He was an apostle of God, and strong divinity was concentrated in his eyes.

Just like Ricky's younger sister, Anna.

Those who see a lot are usually picky. He was stronger in his previous life, so there was no problem, but now he was at a disadvantage.

"It will be very difficult. The most important thing is the sum of the two. I will try my best to match it."

"It's the first time I've gotten advice from Hasu."

Han smiled and changed the bell stick to a long stick.

Siegfried also unlocked the mana of the staff.

A wizard who deals with space and a master class master who changes the status quo for himself.

And Jamie, the controller of Gremia.

Darius put his sunglasses back on.

quagga-!!

The walls of the space that Siegfried had built collapsed.

Darius, who had rushed forward in an instant, smashed the auror with his fist.

If they hadn't built the wall beforehand, those fists would have reached them.

"Turn it off!"

Suddenly, Han appeared from the side and stabbed Darius' thick muscle with a stick.

His body was pushed aside, but it didn't fly away as intended.

"This strong bastard!"

Han's voice came from behind.

Darius flinched and turned back, but faster than that, Han's rod struck his chest.

There was a slight convulsion around the eyes. The auror-wound rods crash non-stop.

[Cheonwu Spear (天武槍) - One hundred stabs]

The stick turns into a spear.

His arcane spears pierced the air and ripped the air apart.

Pick and drop!

Darius felt the aurors clad in armor scatter here and there.

'1.86. The number is higher than before.'

I mean, it wasn't power.

He stretched out his hand, feeling the swirling spear. And gently gripped the spear blade.

"Where!"

space is wrong

It became a deformed shape like a misaligned puzzle.

It was stinging in the side. The auror pierced and Han's changgeuk touched his skin.

But it doesn't matter.

I turned my arm back and held the spear firmly with the arm folds (folding part of the arm).

If you touch it, you can hold onto it no matter how the space changes.

A clenched fist flew away aiming at Han. And I felt the distance widening.

Wizard.

bang!!

A roar echoed through the air as the arm carrying the fist was fully extended. A huge shock wave occurred.

With just one punch, the air layer was ragged.

ignorant ."

Siegfried, who saved Han from the crisis, stuck out his tongue.

"Get out of here."

Siegfried's hand touched Darius' chest.

He was far away and moved forward in an instant.

Siegfried in space. The magical subject he established was 'manipulating space-time coordinates'.

If he understood the technique, he could develop the magic of the space system he had envisioned in his head without chanting.

"Suck!"

Darius felt a concussion inside his body, ignoring the auror. At the same time as I was aware, my body was flying fiercely backwards.

'1.80. I know who you are.'

There was no one but one archmage who performed space magic like this.

"Siegfried of Space. I never knew the day would come when I would mix my hands with the famous battle mage."

bang!!

With those words, he was thrown into the thick five-layered wall that Jamie had made.

Again the space was distorted.

"Chidogon!"

Han, who suddenly changed the spear to Chidogon, swung it over Darius vigorously.

Aww!!

The five-layer wall was smashed to the level of dust.

Darius did not lose consciousness in the midst of a distant shock. I just thought as I felt my body moved to another place at will.

'It's annoying.'

Siegfried squeezes the space.

The space where Darius existed was distorted into a single point.

[Omega Impact]

The moment the point was compressed to its limit, when it was opened, a powerful shock wave spread out around Darius.

A silent shock wave that can't even hear a roar!

"Are you okay with this?"

But Darius did not die.

Siegfried bit his lower lip and lifted the staff high.

[Multi Impact]

The space around it contracted and expanded at a tremendous rate.

"It will take quite a while."

However, Darius' solid armor was not broken. Rather, the hardness seemed to increase with each attack.

chimerical ."

Han was speechless, as if it were nonsense.

As such, nothing came to mind other than the expression 'monster'. Even though they were hit by their attacks, it didn't seem like there was much damage.

Rather, everyone felt eerie at the feeling of getting stronger.

Darius opened his mouth.

"I have no interest in killing children."

The opponent also finds it quite difficult to deal with him, but Darius was the same.

The power to freely change space was certainly the natural enemy of 'space perception'.

So, even if you are ignorant, you have no choice but to change your method.

The auror that was covering her skin seeped into her body. At that moment, Siegfried and Han had an ominous feeling.

Confucius!

kid!

The two called for Jamie at the same time, without whoever came first.

"Child, you can blame me."

Jamie looked at Darius who appeared in front of him.

He tried to manipulate Gramia to keep him away, but at a speed that no one could react.

Fists fall forward.

Boom!!!!!!!

Siegfried's eyes widened.

The power contained in one volume vibrated the whole of Gramia.

No one can survive if something like that happens. Not even Jamie Wellton, who just turned eight.

Confucius!!!

His golden hair soared in anger.

Repeat to overlap the space in multiple layers. Jijik Woo - The overlapping space could not withstand the pressure and was about to crumble, but Siegfried did not stop.

I will crush you with Darius like this.

I was going to do that.

" how?

Darius's trembling voice.

He never changed his voice since he started this battle.

However, it has changed.

A clenching fist was clogged to the child's forehead. It wouldn't be enough to blow that little head off without a trace, but it felt like it was blocked by a very solid wall.

"You seem very upset."

Jamie raised an eyebrow.

"Still, don't be vigilant. Master."

[Wellton type 1]

[Slicing around]

All physical strength to 0.

[Dagger Ver. All Might]

Puff!!

Blood gushed from Darius' chest.
